Step 3: Register in your Courses

Once you have chosen your courses, select the “Search for Classes” link in Bear Tracks to see when each class is offered. Use this to put together your weekly schedule.

Use the online timetable planner or the "Schedule Builder" tool in Bear Tracks to make this easier.Special Note: The Schedule Builder is a tool used to create a visual of your timetable. Once you create a timetable using Schedule Builder, you must remember to actually "ENROLL" in your courses.

If you do not wish to use the Schedule Builder, simply use the “Add” and “Drop” functions to build your timetable.

Go ahead and register for your classes and remember to print your timetable to ensure it looks the way you want.

Registration Tips

Tip 1: Don’t give yourself a course load that is too heavy. How many labs will you have in one term? (2-3 labs per term is normal unless you are in an Honors program) Do you plan to work part time? Remember, you may have lab assignments and lab exams in addition to regular course work so don’t over load yourself.

Tip 2: Do not register for a course if you do not have the pre-requisite.You risk getting a poor grade and you will not receive credit for the course if you do not have the pre-requisites completed prior to registration.

Tip 3: Have a balanced timetable.
Throw in some Arts or other outside options to explore areas besides Science. English counts as an Arts option.
